HAVE YOUR SAY IN THE EVOLUTION TOWARDS 5G USER EQUIPMENT AND DEVICES

The MIPI Alliance was established to design a core set of standard approaches to enable mobile device manufacturers to source components from different vendors, better optimize the performance of their designs, and expedite state-of-the-art, innovative mobile-connected devices. 

The MIPI RF Front-End Interface (RFFE) is the control interface that simplifies integration of complex RF front-end devices and as the industry evolves from 4G (LTE) towards 5G, there is a need to ensure an evolution of the interface meets future requirements and demands in line with enhancements to existing use-cases as well as new and emerging use-cases.

This survey provides an opportunity to influence the next generation MIPI RF Front End interface for 5G and future end-user equipment:
